A correspondent at Potts Static
writes us correcting some of the state
mems made by ex-Knight of Labor j
last weeks DEMOCRAT. Our correspond
ent says that up to August 10, 1887 tn
iniatition fee was 81 90 for men an
so cents for ladies. 1t is now 5000 70
men and so cents for ladies'. The due
are 10 cents per month and the pc
capita tax is taken out OF the genera
fund accruing from the monthly due
and iniatition fees. AS for the assist
ant fund no assembly is required 4
have any such thing unless it want
it, and they have never been called q

and reduces the cost considerably, a.
though, it must be admitted, it
still pretty large.
